DISG MISSION

Information overload that we as individuals daily face, represents a major challenge for the future society. The research goal of the DISG group is to offer novel solutions for serving information to people in an effective and nonintrusive way from the vast data cloud while taking into account (mobile) context, information needs and preferences as well as real-time data properties.

 

Distributed Information Systems Group (DISG) is a research group within the Department of Telecommunications, Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing (FER), University of Zagreb.

DISG group members: Prof. Ivana Podnar Žarko (group leader), Asst. Prof. Krešimir Pripužić, Aleksandar Antonić (PhD student) and Martina Marjanović (PhD student)

Research topics are within the area of large-scale distributed systems with a focus on scalability-related issues, in particular, Big Data processing in the context of (mobile) Internet of Things, recommender systems, and information retrieval in decentralized environments.

On June 1st, 2013 we are joining as a new partner the project OpenIoT - Open Source Solution for the Internet of Things into the Cloud funded under the EU FP7 programme.

OpenIoT investigates efficient ways to formulate and manage an IoT based cloud environments i.e. environments comprising IoT “entities” and resources (such as sensors, actuators and smart devices) that offer utility-based (i.e. pay-as-you-go) IoT services.

Within OpenIoT DISG focuses on the following research topics:

  • Mobility aspects of internet connected objects for energy-efficient data harvesting;

  • Publish/subscribe mechanisms for efficient continuous processing and filtering of sensor data streams in the cloud environment.
